Proponents boast that 802.11bb is 100 times faster than Wi-Fi and more secure. "Can you see the light of need shinin' in my eye?"
And do yourself a favour and watch a video of him playing that live. He was a marvel (IMO).

So, I'll be having to tell my granddaughter to sit down. And the cats to stop playing with the "light" thing.

Microsoft has a serious problem on its hands, thanks to competition from...itself? It's almost like demanding that everyone buy new machines isn't a successful upgrade strategy?

So after 8 years of tweaking, can you do something really radical in windows 11, like move your start menu to the left side of the screen, vertical?

|
|
Nope. Progress!

I am always brought back to the stupidity and hubris of this video I believe you or someone else pointed out: Windows 11 Inside story - How we made the Start. It just boggles my mind.
edit: even in Windows 10, I am using Start10 to make it look like 7 so I can organize items logically by folders, so their downgrades started before 11 in my eyes.
|

Windows 10 now allows folders in the start menu. I discovered this by accident last week.

I'm fairly tolerant of Windows Upgrades. I'm one of the weirdos who didn't mind Windows 8. Windows 11, however, tried my patience. It has so many needless design changes. Then there is the lack of testing and the absurd hardware requirements. Microsoft shot themselves in their feet (out of pure arrogance.)
(I periodically use my granddaughter's MacBook Air. And hate it.)

Userware is using vestiges of the long-gone and sorely missed Microsoft Silverlight web-dev platform to power its new "XAML for Blazor" offering, which lets .NET developers use markup language within client-side Blazor applications. Next you'll tell me that people are still keeping VB alive

In a new GatesNote, Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates says that our concerns about AI are rational, but that fears of AI destroying humanity are overblown. 640 neural networks ought to be enough for everyone?
Sorry, couldn't think of a better 640 something

Microsoft has started sharing the first details on the Windows 11 version 23H2, the next annual update for the OS to be released later this fall. "The enabler will love the addict into darkness."

This is the updated version of the last update that trashed performance and broke networks?

No, this will be the next update to trash performance and break networks.
The current version to do that is the silly-named, "Moment 3".

Aptos is a sans-serif font that also comes in monospaced and serifed varieties. And millions will continue to use Arial for everthing
And millions more (including me) couldn't tell the difference between Arial, Calibri, and this.
